Video setup and main settings. To adjust Video setup
settings, see “Adjust color and lighting“, p. 46. The setup
settings return to the default settings after you close the

message). If you want to view the video on a compatible
TV or PC, select High, which has QVGA resolution

through MMS, select Sharing (QCIF resolution, .3gp file
